Milà Apartamentos Barcelona - Barcelona

The apartment was amazing.

The apartment was beautifully remodeled. Having been on the road for a couple of weeks it felt luxurious. We had trouble figuring out the washing machine but no big deal. The check in arrangement was fine but needs to be worked out well in advance so you can pay the city tax and fill out some forms.

We stayed for 4 nights, family of 5. We couldn't get any sleep because of the noise from the street.

Stayed for 3 nights end of May with my wife and two adult daughters. Check-in process is at a different location - approx 2km drive. Mila Apt was gorgeous! We had 2nd floor apt 2, and it is well laid out, very clean, full kitchen, washer/dryer, TVs, very comfortable beds, two rooms. I love the French doors that lead to the little verandas where you can sit, have a coffee. It's a corner apartment so you have windows and verandas on both sides. Apartment is located on two tiny narrow streets with high apartment buildings everywhere, so not much of a view, but still very nice. Not suited for getting a quiet night's sleep, everything echoes, from the garbage collection trucks at midnight, to the traffic in the morning. Our second night was the Spanish soccer championship so the apts across had their doors and windows open and lots of yelling and cheering until about 1am. On our last night we weren't able to get to our apt because of a riot between anti-government groups and the riot police. This was a freak occurrence, not typical of this area I was told. This neighbourhood 'looks' bad at night (it's not), during the day however when the stores are open, this is a quaint little street. Mila Apts is in a pretty central location. At the end of the night it was a bit of a walk from the main strip - Avenida La Rambla. I would have given it 5 stars across the board if it was in a better location and if the check-in process was easier.

The apartment was fine, very clean and cosy, but it was very noisy, it was almost at ground level, so the road traffic was considerable, the Bodega across the road opened its shutters at 7 am each morning and building work was being carried out across the street. But the reception staff were excellent, especially when the electronic key didn't work! Barcelona is just lovely, we came for the Grand Prix and had a lovely week sightseeing, the apartment was in a good area for that,I am afraid due to the noise, I wouldn't recommend this apartment.
